What a wonderful film – particularly as my Mum & myself appear in it! Mum worked at the Hastings Observer at the time and she is one of the minstrels on the Black & White Minstrels float, I am on the Miss Hastings float, came second, and you can see me waving frantically at the crowds (far side with long blond hair) – brought back many memories. Thank you.
